KINGS PARK, PERTH, AUSTRALIA

キングス・パーク . 킹스 파크 . 国王公园

From our hotel, we took 2 buses to get to Kings Park.Mom said it was one of the world's largest parks in the city.The scenery at Fraser Avenue was very beautiful, and there was so much space for me to run around!

﻿﻿﻿﻿﻿After lunch, Mom and I went next door to the Visitor Centre to get a map, and it was from here that Grandma and us got separated. Mom decided that we would continue, and meet Grandma back here again later.

No wonder it is rated as the No. 1 place to visit in Perth! There are lots for the family to see and do... wish I had allocated one full day here! Marcus worked up quite a sweat at Rio Tinto Naturescape, even though the weather was about 18 degrees!

I got lost trying to locate Rio Tinto Naturescape, and there weren't many signage to guide us. We wandered around for 15 mins until a nice Aussie lady pointed us to the right way. Essentially, from the car park beside the Visitor Centre, follow the road all the way down until you see this sign. If unsure, ask people along the way.

It is often repeated in the Kings Park website and to be noted - to plan the visit carefully as the park will be closed on days when a very high fire danger rating or above is forecast. See the Conditions of Entry too, and park wardens are on hand to supervise

Other than the lovely view it offered, there was otherwise nothing to rave about the Botanical Café; the service was slow, the food was so-so. Then again, there are few food options available in the Park. (I chanced upon this food review site - urbanspoon - which provided food recommendations in Perth)
